This year's winter vacation file can be said to be really lively, and on February 6th, two S-level works were set one after another, namely "The Case of Tang Di Gong" and "South to North", both of which premiered, and both premiered four episodes, so after staying up late to chase eight episodes, it can be said that there are a lot of opinions on these two dramas, judging from the four episodes that were broadcast separately, these two dramas give people a completely different feeling. 
The first four episodes of "The Case of Tang Di Gong" starring Zhou Yiwei, Wang Likun, and Zhong Chuxi are the first four episodes of "The Case of Tang Di Gong", and the first unit case is "The Phoenix Seal Case", which is indeed very exciting after watching the first four episodes, Changsun Qing and Wei Wuji, each with their own scheming, want to use Tianhuo to calculate the Empress Wu, because they are not willing to implement the new policy of the Empress Wu, which seriously threatens the interests of their families for Changsun Qing, and for Wei Wuji, he is dissatisfied with the Empress Wu. 
Eldest Sun Qing used the Heavenly Thunder to split the Sycamore Tree to create rumors, and let the rumors of the Heavenly Fire descending into the world shake the position of the Empress Wu, and Wei Wujian planned to make his students spontaneously combust in the examination room to complete the rumors of the Heavenly Fire, thus completely shaking the position of the Empress Wu. It's just that the unexpected martial law in the examination room made it impossible to bring the wine jug into it, so He Dajing temporarily saved his life. 
However, what he didn't expect was that when he and Di Renjie went to the street, because of a small tune, Di Renjie pulled He Dajing into the hall that Empress Wu had admired, the two were drunk, and then Wei Wuji moved his hands and feet, and the entire hall burned, and a palace maid hidden in the hall was wanted by Jin Wuwei, suspected of being the palace maid who stole the phoenix seal, and it was even more coincidental that Di Renjie survived. 
So in order to prove his innocence, Di Renjie began to look for the truth, and he always thought that Changsun Qing did it at first, because everything was unfavorable to Empress Wu, and in turn it was beneficial to him, and even offended Changsun Qing for this. However, what he didn't expect was that not long after, Di Renjie set up a bureau and wanted Changsun Qing's people to take the initiative to throw themselves into the net to kill Wei Wuji, but he didn't expect him to suddenly realize why he was able to survive the fire in the Theater
In the end, he found Wei Wuji, Wei Wuji also boldly admitted, and he took the initiative to set fire to himself, he has been using Di Renjie to say to Changsun Qing that if the fourth heavenly fire occurs, then it is the will of heaven, if there is no fourth heavenly fire, then it is man-made, so he committed suicide in order to be able to make the matter of the heavenly fire solid, and then it will be abolished. It's a pity that Wei Wujian or Changsun Qing are all calculated without knowing it. 
Empress Wu had already expected everything, she even knew everything, Kang Zhiyi did not betray Changsun Qing, the palace maid did not steal the phoenix seal, she and Kang Zhiyi acted in a play, she even expected everything Wei Wuji had done, so at the critical moment, Kang Zhiyi led a group of assassins to kill Wei Wuji's house, and then Kang Zhiyi killed these assassins, these assassins are all Changsun Qing's people, with these assassins, the rumors of Tianhuo are self-defeating, everything is man-made, not providential, and the spearhead is directed at Changsun Qing. 
It can only be said that Empress Wu is really too smart, and he calculated everyone with one move, including Di Renjie, of course, Di Renjie finally participated in the palace examination and went to Penglai County, but this trip was arranged by Empress Wu, he will encounter a very treacherous case when he goes to Penglai, and it seems to have something to do with his father's death.
After only watching the first four episodes, I can only say that from the perspective of conspiracy, this drama is still quite interesting, of course, from the perspective of detective suspense, the suspense of this drama is slightly inferior, and the plot is slightly thin, but this is also something that can't be helped, because this drama is a unit drama, two or three episodes of a case, so it is inevitable that it lacks some thickness.
Compared with the beginning of the experience of "Tang Di Gong Case", the TV series "South to North" also premiered four episodes, judging from the first four episodes, this drama is still good as a whole, starring Bai Jingting, Jin Chen, and Ding Yongdai, it tells the story of Wang Xin, a police officer on a train in the 70s, and Wang Xin, who was falsely imprisoned, regained his innocence and became a police officer again.
Judging from the new plot, this drama is still very interesting and very exciting, there are many stories that happened on this train, such as "Liu Neng" Wang Xiaoli staged the scene of "Praying Mantis Catching Cicadas and Yellow Sparrows in the New Plot", and for example, Tang Guofu and his daughter-in-law played by Bao Bell were stolen because their watches were stolen, and then they committed suicide by cutting their wrists.
There is also an old blind man played by Ni Dahong, because the child was abducted, he has been staying in the car all these years, just to be able to find his child, but he got into the car but someone kindly paid for him. Of course; There are many, many similar touching things, all in all, this drama still feels very good, at least the plot is still very meaningful.
In addition to these things that happened on the train, of course, there are other things, such as the grudge between Wang Xin's father and Ma Kui, Ma Kui was framed at the beginning, in fact, Wang Xin's father saw it, why didn't he prove Ma Kui's innocence? Is it for the position of Duan Chang or for some other reason? This will be one of the biggest doubts about this show, and of course it should be unlikely to be revealed in the early stage.
This drama mainly tells the story of the police in order to protect the safety of passengers' lives and property, anti-pickpocketing, anti-abduction, anti-narcotics, patrol lines, crack down on theft and fraud, etc., it can be said that they are always fighting on the front line, facing vicious criminals, although Wang Xin's father and Ma Kui have grievances, but Ma Kui also looked down on Wang Xin from the beginning to the back of the sincerity as his apprentice, and taught him everything.
Wang Xin was impulsive and reckless, and did a lot of things, such as getting out of the car to chase those bandits without permission, which seemed to be a good deed, but it was actually against the rules, but under Ma Kui's training, he went from being reckless and impulsive to learning to think about problems with his brain and achieve growth, and he was most likely with Ma Yan in the end, and it was still very interesting for the master and apprentice to become a son-in-law.
One stays up late to chase, one abandons the drama For these two dramas, my personal opinion is completely different, "The Case of Tang Di Gong" and "The Case of the Tang Dynasty" have a big gap in terms of genre and cast, of course, the most important thing is the view of the plot, it can only be said that one stays up late to chase and the other abandons the drama. chased "The Case of Di Gong of the Tang Dynasty" and abandoned the drama "South to North". Why? There are three reasons for this:
In terms of one story, "South to North" is too thin, although "The Case of Di Gong of the Tang Dynasty" does not see a deep story, but every small story that happened in the car in "South to North" is too plain and boring, such as the theft of Wang Xun's Wang Guofu's leather bag, and for example, Wang Xiaoli's two-person actor "Praying Mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches behind" and so on, these stories are only described in a very short plot, and many stories are not clearly told, and then they are like a glimpse of the sky, and they passed in a hurry, which is really surprising and speechless.
For example, like the old blind man played by Ni Dahong, this should have a follow-up, so it is acceptable, that is, occasionally interspersed and foreshadowed, and the plot of one or two episodes will be mainly told a story later, which is acceptable, but the overall feeling is like plain water, without any taste, in comparison, "The Case of Di Gong of the Tang Dynasty" uses four episodes to tell a story, but it is more interesting, of course, in comparison, as far as the Fengyin case is concerned, I personally think it is still too bland, not suspenseful and thrilling enough, That feeling of detective is not full.
Second, "South to North" has some incorrect views, although this drama tries its best to become a growth process of immortal Wang Xin, but at the beginning, Wang Xin's character as a policeman was not very in place, for example, the egg king of the old Wu family in the family home was eaten, but Wang Xin, who is a policeman, concealed it, he ate the happiest himself, and then bought a sick chicken, killed a nest of chickens, and then the three of them raised money to buy ten chickens, strictly speaking, the old Wu family was at a loss. Although this is a small matter, as a police officer, there is something wrong with it.
For example, he "stuffed" an aunt who gave someone away into the train, didn't he know that it was dangerous? Even if she's a passenger, that's not right, right? In addition, in the new plot, Ma Kui directly threatened and persecuted the thief, according to Captain Hu's own words, Ma Kui is at fault, the other party is indeed a thief, and there is legal punishment for doing bad things, but Ma Kui is somewhat unacceptable to deal with it in this way. Of course, for these petty thefts, I personally think that there is nothing wrong with Ma Kui doing this, but from a legal point of view, it is really wrong for him to do so.
The third actor's acting skills are too dramatic, the heroine of this drama is Jin Chen, first of all, I really didn't recognize it at first sight, she was as thin as a bamboo pole, in terms of appearance, she couldn't compare with the doctor played by Zuo Xiaoqing, and even Wang Sufen played by Hu Ke was not as good, although Hu Ke was old, she was still charming, she played Ma Yan's mother in the play, ** made yellow-brown, but she could see that she looked good, in comparison, Ma Yan played by Jin Chen was a little thin, and it was said that the beauty was in the bones and not in the skin, But it's hard to be beautiful with a thin bamboo pole, right?
As for "The Case of Di Gong of the Tang Dynasty", there are also flaws in this regard, such as Di Renjie's appearance is somewhat wild, and he and his teacher Wei Wuji stand together, really like a guard, but Wei Wuji is more suitable to play Di Renjie. But on the whole, in comparison, "The Case of Tang Di Gong" is more brilliant.
All in all, in terms of the comparison of these two dramas, I can still accept staying up late chasing "The Case of Di Gong of the Tang Dynasty" and abandoning the drama "South to North". And "The Case of Di Gong of the Tang Dynasty" gives people a feeling of going low and high, the early "Fengyin Case" is more about conspiracy, and the later "Screen Case", "Case" and other cases are more thriller and suspense in the plot.
So at present, "The Case of Di Gong of the Tang Dynasty" still has more potential, the cast is luxurious, and the acting skills of these actors are also **, and the service is even more carefully polished, I hope that the follow-up eight cases will not disappoint and can satisfy everyone.
